A group of friends has been “getting together” on-line to watch movies at the same time and chat about them. We’d like to watch something featuring Chadwick Boseman. What do y’all recommend?

Best/Great movie is a plus, of course.  
Free/cheap on-line is a plus (we all have netflix, some have other services)  
Not Black Panther is a plus, since most of us have seen it.

I enjoyed 42, About Jackie Robinson.

He was fine in it but I have to say I was underwhelmed by the movie. It was very good in parts. I thought Soul of the Game was a better treatment of the subject.

I thought he was excellent as Jackie. I also enjoyed the movie quite a bit.

I felt it was a bit melodramatic and Harrison Ford was playing a cartoon character. Nothing wrong with Boseman’s portrayal.
